Default Double Exposure

Just looked at that last AstroCam shot closer and discovered it's a double exposure ! The top half is looking back at stage seperation. Figures on the ground are people in the launch area. The bottom half is a high altitude (well higher than the top half) shot of the school we launched at. I had an Estes E15-8 in the upper stage when I pulled the rocket out of storage. Couldn't figure out why. Now I know.......Any way, best I can figure (remember it's been over 10 years), I must have boosted on a D-12 and used the E15 in the upper stage and set the camera to snap a shot at ejection instead of booster seperation annnndddddddd..........forgot to advance the film .....or (most likely) only got it half advanced since the entire picture doesn't seem to be double exposed. Here's the picture again so you don't have to go back to the first page to view and try to figure out what I'm talking about......I wonder if the picture quality would have been better if I hadn't waited so long to get it developed.....

But I thought they were pretty cool at the time...nearly 10 years ago when I was flying with the COSROC chapter in Colorado Springs. But, I guess they're kinda dated now with birds flying 35mm and digital cameras. Still like looking at the staging though......


Greetings... just did a PShop correction on the 2nd picture you posted. Of course, there's nothing like the original 110 pictures to bring back nostalgia.

Cool Astrocam shots. I guess I could go looking for mine.

Default ...and another

Looks like the original of this pic got something spilled on it somewhere over the years. Well, here's a shot at making it look new again. (From your original post.) Enjoy.
